The main difference in my mind is TJ has extensive recruiting in the MW (especially Wisconsin where ISU has thrived) compared to Prohm's connections in the south which has had mixed results.

That’d be awesome. I liked him a lot and thought he was going to be good as he got older.
That's pretty solid core and something to work with. But even without the 4-star recruit its a serviceable roster for a good coach. I'd print this exact post and talk through it with potential targets if I were Jamie Pollard.
I thought so too. People got down on him because of his poor shooting but I loved him as a player. Can't remember the game but when the dude took it right at him towards the end of the game and Grill challenged him and got the steal. I was super hyped. Maybe OSU?
Yeah I believe that was the last game of the year. T-Lew topped that off with the play of the year in the dunk / flex. Lol
That’s a very young starting 5. Hard to imagine they would make much noise in the big 12 Any time soon.
I’m not saying that team would be great nor good, but that team is exactly how some of our other solid teams have been.
Highly touted young guys mixed with experience. Rasir and Hinson would be in their 4th year. Mix that in with some more experience on the bench, a better coach, and you have the opportunity to be successful.
I’ve watched Florida State. Its not entertaining.
That’s not very young by today’s standards. Nor is it hard to imagine they would make noise (.500 or better in conference) anytime soon. Is 1-2 years not soon?
It has a senior and redshirt Jr in the starting lineup, with Foster a redshirt freshman. Experience on the bench, the type of role in which much of that experience is best suited for. I wouldn’t be surprised if there would be an additional newcomer with experience rather than Dubar or Blackwell.
The material is there, and if TJ can pull that off, he should be considered.
I personally never get bored with winning.
Last year they ended the year #4 in the nation and won the ACC outright. The year prior they ended at #10 and lost in the Sweet 16. Year before that they lost in the elite 8.
The past three years Hamilton has coached them to a 70-18 record. They don’t do one thing great, rather they do multiple things really good. Sign me TF up.
Who do you WANT to hire? Jeff Hornacek or Darian DeVries (Mike Brey or Archie Miller if they become available)
Who do you think we WILL hire? TJ
Who do you definitely NOT want to hire? An assistant or mid major coach

Our very old lineup sucked this year. Talent is what matters.
Yeah I thought about that after I wrote it. He'd be the one exception I'd be okay with.
Ah I gotcha. Unfortunately I don’t think he’ll be an option for us. Heard he’s not interested.
Half of those guys you have coming off the bench won't even be on the team next year which is probably a good thing.
Everyone - please stop with the Archie Miller nonsense. It is clear from anyone advocating him that they have not watched ANY Indiana hoops over the past 4 years, and are simply looking at his Dayton record. He has arguably done less with more than even Prohm.
